Dan Sabbagh is a British journalist, who writes about the media industry. He currently works at the Guardian, as head of media and technology. He is co-founder of the media news and entertainment website Beehive City, along with two former Times colleagues Adam Sherwin and Timothy Glanfield, and was a contributor prior to joining The Guardian. He was also media editor at The Times, for five years, between 2004 and 2009; before that he was the paper's telecoms correspondent. He previously worked as a city reporter at The Daily Telegraph and as senior reporter on the magazine Computing.

In April 2005, along with his editor Robert Thomson, he was served with a criminal libel summons from a French court by the Barclay Brothers over an article published in The Times in November 2004. That action was dropped after The Times published a statement in February 2007.
